Engenio Information Technologies Extends Certification With
FalconStor
Combined Solution Delivers Rapid and Reliable Data Recovery to Heterogeneous
Computing Environments
MILPITAS, Calif., July 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Engenio Information
Technologies, Inc., formerly LSI Logic Storage Systems, Inc., today announced
that the VirtualTape Library (VTL) software solution from FalconStor Software
Inc. (NASDAQ:FALC) has achieved compatibility certification. Engenio
previously certified FalconStor's IPStor(R) software, the company's flagship
product, and has now extended this certification to include the FalconStor VTL
solution.
"FalconStor is pleased to expand its relationship with Engenio to deliver
comprehensive, enterprise-class data solutions for backup and recovery," said
Bernie Wu, FalconStor's Vice President of Business Development. "This
certification ensures that customers can use our products together to address
shrinking backup windows, demand for rapid recovery, and the simplification and
scalability of the entire backup and recovery process." FalconStor develops state-of-the-art storage network infrastructure software
solutions that are used by today's leading companies to minimize the total cost
of ownership (TCO) of storage for business critical applications. FalconStor's
VTL is powered by IPStor, and enables the transfer of data to and from a
disk-based virtual tape at ultra-high speeds. VTL technology uses disks to
model a tape drive, providing administrators with the ability to create and
attach virtual tape drives and libraries, which are seen by backup servers as
physical tape drives and libraries.
"Engenio's task is to enable and protect Storage Area Networks (SANs)
throughout the enterprise, by providing better ways to store and recover data,"
said Julie Ryan, Engenio Manager of Alliances. "Our continuing relationship
with FalconStor enables customers to seamlessly integrate a virtual tape
solution into their existing back up software, thereby ensuring the
availability of critical data." The Engenio Certified Compatible process requires extensive testing to assure
stability, interoperability, and fault tolerance using heavy loads typical of
high performance enterprise computing.
